difference in rods? APPLICATIONS?

Postby John M » 10/14/09 7:02pm

I currently own a 7'8" magnesium all day flipping rod ad I 'm looking to add another flippin rod to my arsenal. Leaning towards something a little different,maybe an LTX or LTA . Curious about the telescoping 7'6" and 7"11"models. Also the question of action needed is questionable . Under consideration is med heavy,heavy,extra heavy. Looking for a rod that will have a additional applications than just a flippin and pichin rod for tubes,jigs,creaturebaits,worms.
Any recommendations on the rods in question or expanding use of the mag 7'8"all day flippin rod greatly appreciated.

If you like the Mag's you are going to love the LTA's they are lighter and more sensitive in my opinion. I have both of the LTA's listed and they both have their place. The 7'-6" is an awesome flipping stick but also can be used for other applications. I use mine for pitching a tube, senkos, swimbaits, and flippin the thick stuff. The 7'-11" flippin stick is mainly for workin the thick stuff but also makes a great swimbait rod when you want to go for the big ones. If I was looking for an all around rod for multiple actions I would purchase the ultra sensitive 7'6" Heavy LTA. Hope this helps!

I agree, the he76hc would be my choice! Great for Senkos and Carolina rigs.
